Welcome to My Gay Universe: A Space for LGBTQ+ Stories & Voices
Hey there! š Iām Eric Aaberg, the author of My Gay Universeāa blog dedicated to sharing real, unfiltered stories about growing up LGBTQIA+, navigating identity, coming out, dating, and everything in between.
Why I Started This Blog
Growing up, I often felt like I was navigating life without a map. There werenāt many honest, relatable, and real stories about what itās like to grow up gayāespecially in places that arenāt always welcoming. So, I decided to create one.
My Gay Universe is here to be that space, a place where we can talk about the highs, the lows, the awkward moments, and the lessons learned along the way. Whether youāre questioning, coming out, living your best queer life, or just looking for a space that feels like home, you belong here.
What Youāll Find Here
š Openly Us: A collection of LGBTQIA+ interviews & shared experiences
š Queer Reflections: Personal essays & deep dives into identity
ā¤ļø Dating & Relationships: The good, the bad, and the walking red flags
š Coming Out Chronicles: Stories and advice on coming out
šļø Ericās Universe: Specific posts, stories, and lessons Iāve learned along the way
Iām working on how a social media formatted podcast/series will look as well, as I know the majority of the LGBTQIA+ community is on TikTok and Instagram.
